Perth gains a third Mercure hotel

Booming Perth has a new accommodation option with the opening of Mercure Perth Aurea Kings Park.

The new hotel is the third Mercure property in Western Australia.

Mercure Perth Aurea Kings Park is said to offer "contemporary accommodation designed for both business and leisure travellers".

It features 70 guest rooms and a spacious suite, with somet rooms boasting private balconies overlooking the Perth skyline, John Oldham Park and the Swan River, which is just a short stroll away.

The new hotel marks global hotel giant Accor's second partnership with Capital Bay Management, following the successful operation of The Sebel West Perth.

"The opening of Mercure Perth Aurea Kings Park is a strong addition to our network in Western Australia," says Adrian Williams, Chief Operating Officer, Accor Pacific.

"As the third Mercure hotel in Perth, it reflects the growing appeal of the brand and our commitment to providing quality accommodation that connects guests with the unique character of each destination.”

Peow Lim, general manager at Capital Bay Management, added: "Joining the Accor family through the Mercure brand marks an important milestone for Capital Bay Management.

"With its prime position between Kings Park and the Swan River, the hotel offers guests a unique sense of space and connectivity to the Perth CBD."

Rooms start from just $235 per night, available via all.com.

How about a unique city vacation in Perth's Kings Park?

How about a camping experience in one of Australia's most famous city parks? 

Heyscape Tiny Cabins is bringing its off-grid and eco-friendly accommodation offering to Perth's Kings Park and Botanic Gardens for a limited time.

Set over almost 400 hectares, Kings Park is one of the world's largest inner-city parks. And it's the first time an accommodation provider has called it “home”.

Three Heyscape tiny cabins will be available for overnight stays in some of the most picturesque locations in Kings Park, with two featuring elevated, uninterrupted views of the Swan River. The cabins will be bookable for stays between June 7 and July 28. 

Heyscape head Tim Brady says unlike traditional accommodation providers, Heyscape's Tiny Cabins at Kings Park require no ground works. Each employs solar power, compostable odourless toilets, water tank and a waste management scheme to ensure the land is left as it is found.

“We can provide guests with a unique experience in an iconic Perth location, while respecting the surrounding area and leaving minimal impact,” he said.
